Amanitenmemide

Amanitenmemide (?-267 BC) was king of the Blemmyes during the 3rd century BC. Born and raised in Ptolemais Theron (present-day Eritrea), Amanitenmemide became the leader of the Blemmyes tribe and traded with Meroe and Axum early in his reign. In 267 BC, the Ptolemaic Empire general Ergiyios invaded Blemmyes and captured Ptolemais Theron, killing Amanitenmemide in the process.
